I dislike the idea of having multiple versions installed at once. The
argument I saw for this case was that different versions might have
incompatibilities in their collaboration protocols, but I feel that we
should instead stick to standard software practices of not breaking
network-exposed  APIs during a stable cycle. If people choose to break
it, let them pick up the pieces.

Are there other reasons?
